In the twenty-fifth year of Hongwu's reign, Prince Zhu Biao died of illness, and Zhu Yuanzhang was about to enthrone the crown prince Zhu Yunwen.
On the eve of the ceremony, the emperor's grandson Zhu Xiongying, who had been dead for ten years, woke up in the ancestral hall. He accidentally overheard the conspiracy of his stepmother Lu - it turned out that there was another hidden reason for his father's death, and his younger brother Zhu Yunxi was being imprisoned in the cold palace and being tortured.
The next day, in front of the Fengtian Palace, Zhu Xiongying burst into the ceremony dressed in mourning clothes and questioned Zhu Yuanzhang in front of the civil and military officials of the court: "When a father dies, a son succeeds first, and the eldest son succeeds first - while I am alive, who should be the crown prince? When the elder brother succeeds, the younger brother succeeds, and the legitimate son succeeds - my younger brother is here, who should the crown prince be?"
In one sentence, history suddenly turned around.
This is the story of a brother who retrieves his younger brother and changes his destiny. Two brothers, one strategizing in the court, the other killing the enemy with blood on the battlefield, from the Battle of Jingnan to the prosperous age of Yonghua, they spent their lives fulfilling that oath——
Live up to this life and live up to each other.
